A new theatrical work rooted in the musical traditions of the Gullah-Geechee people of the Carolinas, drawing on resurfaced Gullah spirituals from the late nineteenth century. The world premiere blends classical, jazz, and traditional influences, developed and performed by tenor Victor Ryan Robertson in collaboration with Creative Director Brian Staufenbiel. This tribute to cultural memory and resilience honors the enduring spirit carried through Gullah-Geechee song.
